Dalva 1995 Colheita, bottled 2011: orange-brown to edge, 20% opaque. Taste mid-to-light. Very clean. Very good length, and excellently balanced. €29. JDAW, January 2013
Shown at the Dalva wine bar in Vila Nova de Gaia. Bottled 2011. Deep orange / brown, lovely and clear. Served chilled, so muted on the nose but what showed was mainly toffee and caramel. Delicious texture on entry, with luscious caramel and oranges; a lovely balance. Gentle coffee on the finish of good length. Soft and elegant. 88/100.
